On impatience

When you have been waiting for something for more than 8 months it is hard to be patient. I think the only person more impatient for this baby to arrive is my wife (rightfully so). Just a little longer, sigh.

Until then I guess I’ll have to keep my wife busy with pretty pictures.

We had a visitor to our neighborhood. Unfortunately before I could get really close my neighbor scared the hawk away. I did manage to get within about 60ft. The trick is don’t walk straight towards anything. Spiral inward. Make it look casual, like you aren’t meaning to get closer, you’re just walking past it. It works until your neighbor comes running out their front door. C’est la vie. I’ll just have to work on my ninja skills.

He’s got this remote controlled fire truck thing down. Including chasing the cats with it. Probably wasn’t a good idea that I showed him how much fun that can be. Sorry Link and Monkey (the Cats).
